The Magic Carpet Ride...

...is finally over. What an amazing trip. Over 2600 miles on only two gybes, sailing all the way (we turned the engine on twice, but only in order to slow down the apparent wind to make it easier to launch the spinnaker!) The boat performed beautifully, the weather was perfect, and the people were wonderful. An adventure for the books, indeed. After a bit of downtime, it'll be time to start final preparations for the World ARC departure in January, so look for updates after the start of the year!
